This is the story of the spiritual, cultural, and political resurgence of a nation taking action to reclaim their lands, waters, law, and food systems in the face of colonization. The book recounts the intergenerational struggle of the Tsleil-Waututh to overcome the harms of colonization. Part memoir, part call to action, the book urges policy makers to prioritize sacred territory over oil profits and insists that colonial Canada change its perspective from bending natural resources to their will to respecting this territory and those who inhabit it.
